Not working for me after "sudo apt-get install linux-generic-lts-raring" on Precise 12.04.3 LTS either:

The "/etc/init.d/vboxdrv setup" demanded by virtualbox rc=1908 does not exist.

"sudo apt-get remove virtualbox-dkms;sudo apt-get install virtualbox-dkms" has been tried to no avail.

"sudo apt-get install linux-headers-`uname -r`" confirms:

linux-headers-3.8.0-30-generic is already the newest version.

Artyom Nosov's patch ends as follows:

/usr/src/virtualbox-4.1.12$ sudo dkms autoinstall

Kernel preparation unnecessary for this kernel. Skipping...
Error! The dkms.conf for this module includes a BUILD_EXCLUSIVE directive which
does not match this kernel/arch. This indicates that it should not be built.
